Description

Organic molecules for optoelectronic devices
Technical Field
The invention relates to organic molecules and to the use of organic molecules in Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLEDs) and in other optoelectronic devices.
Background
Disclosure of Invention
The object of the present invention is to provide organic molecules suitable for use in optoelectronic devices.
This object is achieved by the invention by providing a novel organic molecule.
According to the invention, the organic molecules are pure organic molecules, i.e. they do not contain any metal ions compared to the metal complexes known for use in optoelectronic devices.
According to the invention, the organic molecule exhibits an emission maximum in the blue spectral range or in the sky-blue spectral range and in the green spectral range. In particular, the organic molecules exhibit an emission maximum between 420nm and 560nm (in particular between 420nm and 520, preferably between 440nm and 495nm, more preferably between 450nm and 470 nm). Specifically, the photoluminescence quantum yield of the organic molecule according to the invention is 50% or more. The use of organic molecules according to the invention in an optoelectronic device, such as an Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED), results in a higher efficiency of the optoelectronic device or a higher color purity as represented by the Full Width Half Maximum (FWHM) of the emission. The corresponding OLED has a higher stability and comparable color than an OLED with known emitter materials. An OLED having a light emitting layer including an inventive organic molecule together with a host material (specifically, with a triplet-annihilation host material) has high stability.

Detailed Description
Definition of the definition
Herein, the term "layer" refers to a body having a broad planar geometry. The optoelectronic device may be composed of several layers, which form part of the common general knowledge of a person skilled in the art.
An emissive layer (EML) in the context of the present invention is a layer of an optoelectronic device, wherein light emission from the layer is observed when voltage and current are applied to the device. It is understood by those skilled in the art that light emission from the optoelectronic device is due to light emission from at least one EML. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that light emission from an EML is not generally (primarily) due to all materials included in the EML (not due to the particular emitter material).
An "emitter material" (also referred to as an "emitter") in the context of the present invention is a material that emits light when included in the light emitting layer (EML) of an optoelectronic device (see below), provided that a voltage and current are applied to the device. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the emitter material is typically an "emissive dopant" material, and those skilled in the art understand that the dopant material (which may or may not be emissive) is a material embedded in a host material, which is typically (and herein) referred to as a host material. Herein, when a host material is included in an optoelectronic device (preferably an OLED) comprising at least one organic molecule according to the invention, the host material is also commonly referred to as H B
In the context of the present invention, the term "cyclic group" may be understood in its broadest sense as any monocyclic, bicyclic or polycyclic moiety.
In the context of the present invention, the term "ring" when referring to a chemical structure can be understood in the broadest sense as any monocyclic moiety. Along the same lines, the term "ring" when referring to a chemical structure is to be understood in its broadest sense as any bicyclic or polycyclic moiety.
In the context of the present invention, the term "ring system" is to be understood in its broadest sense as any single, double or multiple ring moiety.
In the context of the present invention, the term "ring atom" refers to any atom that is part of a ring or ring nucleus of a ring system, but not optionally part of an acyclic substituent attached to the ring nucleus.
In the context of the present invention, the term "carbocycle" is to be understood in its broadest sense as any cyclic group in which the cyclic structure comprises only carbon atoms, which of course may be substituted with hydrogen or any other substituent defined in the specific embodiments of the invention. It is understood that the term "carbocycle" as an adjective refers to a cyclic group wherein the cyclic structure comprises only carbon atoms, which of course may be substituted with hydrogen or any other substituent defined in the specific embodiments of the invention.
In the context of the present invention, the term "heterocycle" is to be understood in its broadest sense as any ring group in which the ring core structure includes not only carbon atoms but also at least one heteroatom. It is understood that the term "heterocycle" as an adjective refers to a cyclic group wherein the cyclic structure includes not only carbon atoms but also at least one heteroatom. Unless otherwise specified in the specific embodiments, the heteroatoms may be the same or different at each occurrence, and preferably may be individually selected from the group consisting of B, si, N, O, S and Se (more preferably B, N, O and S, more preferably N, O and S). All carbon atoms or heteroatoms included in the heterocyclic ring in the context of the invention may of course be substituted with hydrogen or any other substituent defined in the specific embodiments of the invention.
It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that any cyclic group (i.e., any carbocycle and heterocycle) may be aliphatic or aromatic or heteroaromatic.
In the context of the present application, when referring to a ring group (i.e., ring, rings, ring system, carbocycle, heterocycle), the term aliphatic means that the ring core structure (not counting substituents optionally attached thereto) contains at least one ring atom that is not part of an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring or ring system. Preferably, most, and more preferably all, of the ring atoms within the alicyclic group are not aromatic or part of a heteroaromatic or ring system (such as in cyclohexane or in piperidine, for example). Here, when an alicyclic ring or ring system is generally referred to, there is no distinction between carbocyclic and heterocyclic groups, and the term "aliphatic" may be used as an adjective to describe a carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring, in order to indicate whether a heteroatom is included in the alicyclic group.
As understood by those of skill in the art, the terms "aryl" and "aromatic (aromatic)" may be understood in the broadest sense as any monocyclic, bicyclic, or polycyclic aromatic moiety, i.e., a ring group in which all ring atoms are part of an aromatic ring system (preferably, part of the same aromatic ring system). However, throughout the present application, the terms "aryl" and "aromatic" are limited to monocyclic, bicyclic or polycyclic aromatic moieties wherein all aromatic ring atoms are carbon atoms. Conversely, the terms "heteroaryl" and "heteroaromatic" herein refer to any monocyclic, bicyclic, or polycyclic aromatic moiety in which at least one aromatic carbocyclic atom is replaced by a heteroatom (i.e., not carbon). Unless otherwise specified in particular embodiments of the application, at least one heteroatom within "heteroaryl" or "heteroaromatic" may be the same or different at each occurrence and may be independently selected from the group consisting of N, O, S and Se (more preferably N, O and S). Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the adjectives "aromatic" and "heteroaromatic" may be used to describe any cyclic group (i.e., any ring system). That is, the aromatic ring group (i.e., aromatic ring system) is an aryl group and the heteroaromatic ring group (i.e., heteroaromatic ring system) is a heteroaryl group.
Unless stated differently in the specific embodiments of the invention, aryl groups herein preferably contain 6 to 60 aromatic ring atoms (more preferably, 6 to 40 aromatic ring atoms, even more preferably, 6 to 18 aromatic ring atoms). Unless stated differently in the specific embodiments of the invention, heteroaryl groups herein preferably contain 5 to 60 aromatic ring atoms (preferably 5 to 40 aromatic ring atoms, more preferably 5 to 20 aromatic ring atoms), at least one of which is a heteroatom (preferably selected from N, O, S and Se, more preferably from N, O and S). If more than one heteroatom is included in the heteroaromatic group, then all heteroatoms are preferably selected independently of each other from N, O, S and Se (more preferably from N, O and S).
In the context of the present invention, for both aromatic and heteroaromatic groups (e.g., aryl or heteroaryl substituents), the number of aromatic ring carbon atoms may be given as a subscript number in the definition of certain substituents, e.g., in "C", for example 6 -C 60 Aryl ", meaning that the corresponding aryl substituent comprises from 6 to 60 aromatic carbon ring atoms. The same subscript numbers are also used herein to denote the number of carbon atoms permissible in all other types of substituents, regardless of whether they are aliphatic, aromatic, or heteroaromatic. For example, the expression "C 1 -C 40 Alkyl "refers to an alkyl substituent comprising from 1 to 40 carbon atoms.
Preferred examples of aryl groups include those derived from benzene, naphthalene, anthracene, phenanthrene, pyrene, dihydropyrene,Groups of perylenes, fluoranthenes, benzanthracenes, benzophenanthrenes, naphthacenes, pentacenes, benzopyrenes, or combinations of these groups.
Preferred examples of heteroaryl groups include those derived from furan, benzofuran, isobenzofuran, dibenzofuran, thiophene, benzothiophene, isobenzothiophene, dibenzothiophene, pyrrole, indole, isoindole, carbazole, indolocarbazole, pyridine, quinoline, isoquinoline, acridine, phenanthridine, benzo-5, 6-quinoline, benzo-6, 7-quinoline, benzo-7, 8-quinoline, phenothiazine, phenoxazine, pyrazole, indazole, imidazole, benzimidazole, naphthazole, phenanthroimidazole, pyridoimidazole, pyrazinoimidazole, quinoxalinoimidazole, oxazole, benzoxazole groups of naphthoxazoles, anthracenoxazoles, phenanthrooxazoles, isoxazoles, 1, 2-thiazoles, 1, 3-thiazoles, benzothiazoles, pyridazines, benzopyridazines, pyrimidines, benzopyrimidines, 1,3, 5-triazines, 1,2, 4-triazines, 1,2, 3-triazines, quinoxalines, pyrazines, phenazines, naphthyridines, carbolines, benzocarbolines, phenanthrolines, 1,2, 3-triazoles, 1,2, 4-triazoles, benzotriazoles, 1,2, 3-oxadiazoles, 1,2, 4-oxadiazoles, 1,2, 5-oxadiazoles, 1,2,3, 4-tetrazines, 1,2,4, 5-tetrazines, purines, pteridines, indolizines and benzothiadiazoles, or combinations of these groups.
As used throughout the present application, the term "arylene" refers to a divalent aryl substituent having two binding sites to other molecular structures to serve as a linker structure. Along the same lines, the term "heteroarylene" refers to a divalent heteroaryl substituent having two binding sites to other molecular structures to serve as a linker structure.
In the context of the present application, the term "fused" when referring to an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system means that the "fused" aromatic or heteroaromatic ring shares at least one bond that is part of both ring systems. For example, naphthalene (or naphthyl when referred to as a substituent) or benzothiophene (or benzothiophenyl when referred to as a substituent) are considered fused aromatic ring systems in the context of the present application in which two benzene rings (for naphthalene) or thiophene and benzene (for benzothiophene) share one bond. It is also understood that sharing a bond in this context includes sharing two atoms that make up the respective bond, and that a fused aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system may be understood as one aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system. In addition, it is understood that more than one bond may be shared by the aromatic or heteroaromatic rings that make up the fused aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system (e.g., in pyrene). Furthermore, it will be understood that the alicyclic ring system may also be fused and this has the same meaning as for the aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system, except of course that the fused alicyclic ring system is not aromatic. Furthermore, it is understood that the aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system may also be fused to the alicyclic ring system (in other words: share at least one bond with the alicyclic ring system).
In the context of the present invention, the term "condensed" ring system has the same meaning as a "fused" ring system.
In certain embodiments of the invention, adjacent substituents bound to a ring or ring system may together form an additional mono-or polycyclic aliphatic, aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system fused to the aromatic or ring system to which the substituents are bound or to the heteroaromatic ring or ring system. It is understood that the fused ring system so formed will optionally be larger (meaning that it includes more ring atoms) than the aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system or ring system to which the adjacent substituents are bonded. In these cases (and if such a number is provided), the "total" amount of ring atoms included in the fused ring system is understood to include the sum of ring atoms in the aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system to which the adjacent substituents are bound and ring atoms of the additional ring system formed by the adjacent substituents, however, wherein the ring atoms shared by the fused rings are counted once instead of twice. For example, a benzene ring may have two adjacent substituents that together form another benzene ring so as to constitute a naphthalene nucleus. Because two carbon atoms are shared by two benzene rings and are therefore counted only once, rather than twice, the naphthalene nucleus then comprises 10 ring atoms.
Generally, in the context of the present invention, the term "adjacent substituent" or "adjacent group" refers to a substituent or group that is bound to the same or an adjacent atom.
In the context of the present invention, the term "alkyl" may be understood in the broadest sense as any linear, branched or cyclic alkyl substituent. Preferred examples of the alkyl group as a substituent include methyl (Me), ethyl (Et), n-propyl [ ] n Pr, isopropyl i Pr), cyclopropyl, n-butyl n Bu) and isobutyl% i Bu, sec-butyl% s Bu), t-butyl t Bu), cyclobutyl, 2-methylbutyl, n-pentyl, sec-pentyl, tert-pentyl, 2-pentyl, neopentyl, cyclopentyl, n-hexyl, sec-hexyl, tert-hexyl, 2-hexyl, 3-hexyl, neohexyl, cyclohexyl, 1-methylcyclopentyl, 2-methylpentyl, n-heptyl, 2-heptyl, 3-heptyl, 4-heptyl, cycloheptyl, 1-methylcyclohexyl, n-octyl, 2-ethylhexyl, cyclooctaneBasic, 1-bicyclo [2,2]Octyl, 2-bicyclo [ 2.2.2]Octyl, 2- (2, 6-dimethyl) octyl, 3- (3, 7-dimethyl) octyl, adamantyl, 1-dimethyl-n-hex-1-yl, 1-dimethyl-n-hept-1-yl, 1-dimethyl-n-oct-1-yl 1, 1-dimethyl-n-dec-1-yl, 1-dimethyl-n-dodec-1-yl, 1-dimethyl-n-tetradec-1-yl, 1-dimethyl-n-hexadecan-1-yl, 1-dimethyl-n-octadec-1-yl 1, 1-diethyl-n-hex-1-yl, 1-diethyl-n-hept-1-yl, 1-diethyl-n-oct-1-yl, 1-diethyl-n-dec-1-yl, 1-diethyl-n-dodec-1-yl, 1-diethyl-n-tetradeca-n-1-yl 1, 1-diethyl-n-hexadecan-1-yl, 1-diethyl-n-octadecan-1-yl, 1- (n-propyl) -cyclohex-1-yl, 1- (n-butyl) -cyclohex-1-yl, 1- (n-hexyl) -cyclohex-1-yl, 1- (n-octyl) -cyclohex-1-yl and 1- (n-decyl) -cyclohex-1-yl.
"s" in, for example, s-butyl, s-pentyl and s-hexyl means "secondary"; or in other words: s-butyl, s-pentyl and s-hexyl are equal to sec-butyl, sec-pentyl and sec-hexyl, respectively. "t" in, for example, t-butyl, t-pentyl and t-hexyl means "tertiary"; or in other words: t-butyl, t-pentyl and t-hexyl are equal to t-butyl, t-pentyl and t-hexyl, respectively.
As used herein, the term "alkenyl" includes straight-chain, branched-chain, and cyclic alkenyl substituents. The term alkenyl illustratively includes substituents such as: ethenyl, propenyl, butenyl, pentenyl, cyclopentenyl, hexenyl, cyclohexenyl, heptenyl, cycloheptenyl, octenyl, cyclooctenyl or cyclooctadienyl.
As used herein, the term "alkynyl" includes straight-chain, branched-chain, and cyclic alkynyl substituents. The term alkynyl illustratively includes ethynyl, propynyl, butynyl, pentynyl, hexynyl, heptynyl, or octynyl.
As used herein, the term "alkoxy" includes straight, branched, and cyclic alkoxy substituents. The term alkoxy illustratively includes methoxy, ethoxy, n-propoxy, isopropoxy, n-butoxy, isobutoxy, sec-butoxy, tert-butoxy and 2-methylbutoxy.
As used herein, the term "thioalkoxy" includes straight, branched, and cyclic thioalkoxy substituents wherein the oxygen atom O of the corresponding alkoxy group is replaced with sulfur S.
As used herein, the term "halogen" (or "halo" when referred to as a substituent in a chemical nomenclature) may be understood in the broadest sense as any atom of an element of main group VII (in other words: group XVII) of the periodic table of elements, preferably fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine.
It is understood that when a fragment of a molecule is described as a substituent or otherwise attached to another moiety, its name may be written as if it were a fragment (e.g., naphthyl, dibenzofuranyl) or as if it were a complete group (e.g., naphthalene, dibenzofuranyl). As used herein, these different ways of specifying substituents or attachment fragments are considered equivalent.
Further, whenever reference is made herein to a reference such as "C 6 -C 60 Aryl "or" C 1 -C 40 When a substituent of an alkyl "is not given a name of a binding site within the substituent, this means that the corresponding substituent may be bound via any atom. For example, "C 6 -C 60 Aryl "substituents may be bound via any of 6 to 60 aromatic carbon atoms," C 1 -C 40 The alkyl "substituents may be bound via any of 1 to 40 aliphatic carbon atoms. On the other hand, a "2-cyanophenyl" substituent may only be bound in such a way that its CN group is adjacent to the binding site, to allow for proper chemical naming.
In the context of the present invention, whenever substituents such as "butyl", "biphenyl" or "terphenyl" are not referred to in further detail, this means that any isomer of the corresponding substituent may be allowed as a particular substituent. In this regard, for example, the term "butyl" as a substituent includes n-butyl, sec-butyl, tert-butyl and isobutyl as substituents. Along the same lines, the term "biphenyl" as a substituent includes o-, m-or p-biphenyl, wherein o-, m-and p-are defined relative to the binding site of the biphenyl substituent to the corresponding chemical moiety having a biphenyl substituent. Similarly, the term "terphenyl" as a substituent includes 3-o-terphenyl, 4-m-terphenyl, 5-m-terphenyl, 2-p-terphenyl, or 3-p-terphenyl, wherein, as known to those skilled in the art, o-, m-, and p-indicate the position of two Ph moieties within the terphenyl relative to each other, and "2-," 3-, "4-" and "5-" indicate the binding sites of a terphenyl substituent to the corresponding chemical moiety having a terphenyl substituent.
It is understood that all of the groups defined above and indeed all chemical moieties may be further substituted according to the specific embodiments described herein, regardless of whether they are cyclic or acyclic aliphatic, aromatic or heteroaromatic.
All hydrogen atoms (H) included in any of the structures referred to herein may be replaced independently at each occurrence by deuterium (D), unless otherwise indicated. It is common practice for those skilled in the art to replace hydrogen with deuterium. Thus, there are many known methods by which this can be achieved, and several review articles exist describing them.
If experimental or computational data are compared, the values must be determined by the same method. For example, if the experiment ΔE is determined by a specific method ST Below 0.4eV, the comparison is valid only using the same specific method including the same conditions. To give a specific example, the determination of PLQY values was only performed under the same reaction conditions (measured in 10% pmma film at room temperature), and comparison of photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQY) of different compounds was effective. Similarly, the calculated energy value needs to be determined by the same calculation method (using the same function and the same basis set).
Optoelectronic device comprising at least one organic molecule according to the invention
Yet another aspect of the invention relates to an optoelectronic device comprising at least one organic molecule according to the invention.
In one embodiment, the optoelectronic device comprising at least one organic molecule according to the invention is selected from the group consisting of:

A light-emitting electrochemical cell consists of three layers (i.e., a cathode, an anode, and an active layer that may contain organic molecules according to the invention).
In a preferred embodiment, the optoelectronic device comprising at least one organic molecule according to the invention is selected from the group consisting of Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLEDs), light emitting electrochemical cells (LECs), organic lasers and light emitting transistors.

Furthermore, an optoelectronic device comprising at least one organic molecule according to the invention may optionally comprise one or more protective layers protecting the device from damaging exposure to harmful substances in the environment (including, illustratively, ground moisture, steam and/or gases).
In one embodiment, the optoelectronic device comprising at least one organic molecule according to the invention is an OLED which may exhibit the following (inverted) layer structure:

wherein the OLED (having an inverted layer structure) only optionally comprises each layer except for the anode layer a, the cathode layer C and the EML, wherein different layers may be combined, and the OLED may comprise more than one layer of each layer type defined above.
Depending on the exact structure and substitution, the organic molecules according to the invention (according to the embodiments represented above) can be used in various layers. Where used, the fraction of organic molecules according to the invention in the corresponding layer in an optoelectronic device (more specifically in an OLED) is 0.1 to 99 wt% (more specifically 1 to 80 wt%). In an alternative embodiment, the proportion of organic molecules in the respective layer is 100% by weight.
In one embodiment, an optoelectronic device comprising at least one organic molecule according to the invention is an OLED which may exhibit a stacked structure. In this structure, the individual cells are stacked on top of each other, contrary to typical arrangements in which the OLEDs are placed side by side. The mixed light may be generated with the OLED exhibiting a stacked structure, and in particular, the white light may be generated by stacking the blue OLED, the green OLED, and the red OLED. Furthermore, OLEDs exhibiting stacked structures may optionally include a Charge Generation Layer (CGL), typically positioned between two OLED subunits and typically consisting of an n-doped layer and a p-doped layer and the n-doped layer of one CGL typically positioned close to the anode layer.
In one embodiment, the optoelectronic device comprising at least one organic molecule according to the invention is an OLED comprising two or more emissive layers between an anode and a cathode. In particular, such a so-called tandem OLED comprises three emission layers, of which one emits red light, one emits green light, one emits blue light, and optionally further layers such as charge generating layers, blocking layers or transport layers may be included between the respective emission layers. In yet another embodiment, the emissive layers are stacked adjacently. In yet another embodiment, the tandem OLED includes a charge generating layer between each two emissive layers. In addition, adjacent emissive layers or emissive layers separated by a charge generating layer may be combined.
In one embodiment, the optoelectronic device comprising at least one organic molecule according to the invention may be a substantially white optoelectronic device, that is to say a device emitting white light. Such a white light emitting optoelectronic device may comprise, for example, at least one (deep) blue emitter molecule and one or more emitter molecules emitting green and/or red light. Then, as described in the later section herein (see below), there may also optionally be energy transfer between two or more molecules (energy transmittance).
In case the optoelectronic device comprises at least one organic molecule according to the invention, it is preferred that the at least one organic molecule according to the invention is comprised in the light emitting layer (EML) of the optoelectronic device (most preferably in the EML of the OLED). However, the organic molecules according to the invention may also be used, for example, for an Electron Transport Layer (ETL) and/or for an Electron Blocking Layer (EBL) or exciton blocking layer and/or for a Hole Transport Layer (HTL) and/or for a Hole Blocking Layer (HBL). Where used, the fraction of organic molecules according to the invention in the respective layers in the optoelectronic device (more particularly in the OLED) is 0.1 to 99 wt.% (more particularly 0.5 to 80 wt.%, particularly 0.5 to 10 wt.%). In an alternative embodiment, the proportion of organic molecules in the respective layer is 100% by weight.
Selection criteria for suitable materials for the various layers of an optoelectronic device, in particular an OLED, are common general knowledge to a person skilled in the art. The prior art describes a large number of materials used in the various layers and also teaches which materials are suitable for use alongside one another. It is understood that any material used in the prior art may also be used in optoelectronic devices comprising organic molecules according to the invention. In the following, preferred examples of materials for the respective layers will be given. It is understood that this does not imply that all types of layers listed below must be present in an optoelectronic device comprising at least one organic molecule according to the invention. In addition, it is understood that an optoelectronic device comprising at least one organic molecule according to the invention may comprise more than one each of the layers listed below, for example, two or more light emitting layers (EML). It is also understood that two or more layers of the same type (e.g., two or more EMLs or two or more HTLs) need not include the same materials or even include the same materials in the same proportions. Furthermore, it is understood that an optoelectronic device comprising at least one organic molecule according to the invention does not have to comprise all the layer types listed below, wherein the anode layer, the cathode layer and the light emitting layer will typically be present in all cases.
The substrate may be formed of any material or combination of materials. Most commonly, glass slides are used as substrates. Alternatively, a thin metal layer (e.g., copper, gold, silver, or aluminum film) or a plastic film or slide may be used. This may allow a higher degree of flexibility. The anode layer a is mainly composed of a material that allows to obtain a (substantially) transparent film. Since at least one of the two electrodes should be (substantially) transparent to allow light to be emitted from the OLED, the anode layer a or the cathode layer C is typically transparent. Preferably, the anode layer a comprises, or even consists of, a large amount of Transparent Conductive Oxide (TCO). Such an anode layer a may for example comprise indium tin oxide, aluminum zinc oxide, fluorine doped tin oxide, indium zinc oxide, pbO, snO, zirconium oxide, molybdenum oxide, vanadium oxide, tungsten oxide, graphite, doped Si, doped Ge, doped GaAs, doped polyaniline, doped polypyrrole and/or doped polythiophene.
Preferably, the anode layer a is (substantially) made of Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) (e.g., (InO) 3 ) 0.9 (SnO 2 ) 0.1 ) Composition is prepared. The roughness of the anode layer a caused by the Transparent Conductive Oxide (TCO) can be compensated by using a Hole Injection Layer (HIL). Furthermore, because transport of quasi-charge carriers from the TCO to the Hole Transport Layer (HTL) is facilitated, the HIL may facilitate injection of quasi-charge carriers (i.e., holes). The Hole Injection Layer (HIL) may comprise poly (3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), polystyrene sulfonate (PSS), moO 2 、V 2 O 5 CuPC or CuI (specifically, a mixture of PEDOT and PSS). The Hole Injection Layer (HIL) may also prevent diffusion of metal from the anode layer a into the Hole Transport Layer (HTL). The HIL may include, for example, PEDOT: PSS (poly (3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene): polystyrene sulfonate), PEDOT (poly (3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene)), mM DATA (4, 4' -tris [ phenyl (m-tolyl) amino)]Triphenylamine), spiro-TAD (2, 2', 7' -tetrakis (N, N-diphenylamino) -9,9' -spirobifluorene), DNTPD (N1, N1' - (biphenyl-4, 4' -diyl) bis (N1-phenyl-N4, N4-di-m-tolylphenyl-1, 4-diamine)), NPB (N, N ' -bis (1-naphthyl) -N, N ' -bis-phenyl (1, 1' -biphenyl) -4,4' -diamine), npnpnpb (N, N ' -diphenyl-N, N ' -bis [4- (N, N-diphenyl-amino) phenyl]Benzidine), meO-TPD (N, N '-tetrakis (4-methoxyphenyl) benzidine), HAT-CN (1, 4,5,8,9, 12-hexaazabenzophenanthrene hexacarbonitrile) and/or spiro-NPD (N, N' -diphenyl-N, N '-bis (1-naphthyl) -9,9' -spirobifluorene-2, 7-diamine).
Adjacent to anode layer a or Hole Injection Layer (HIL), hole transport is typically locatedLayer (HTL). Here, any hole transport material may be used. For example, electron-rich heteroaromatic compounds such as triarylamines and/or carbazole may be used as hole transport compounds. The HTL may reduce an energy barrier between the anode layer a and the emission layer EML. The Hole Transport Layer (HTL) may also be an Electron Blocking Layer (EBL). Preferably, the hole transporting compound has a relatively high energy level of its lowest excited triplet state T1. Illustratively, the Hole Transport Layer (HTL) may include a material such as tris (4-carbazol-9-ylphenyl) amine (TCTA), poly-TPD (poly (4-butylphenyl-diphenyl-amine)), α -NPD (N, N '-bis (naphthalen-1-yl) -N, N' -bis (phenyl) -2,2 '-dimethylbenzidine), TAPC (4, 4' -cyclohexyl-bis [ N, N-bis (4-methylphenyl) aniline) ]) 2-TNATA (4, 4' -tris [ 2-naphthyl (phenyl) amino)]Triphenylamine), spiro-TAD (2, 2', 7' -tetrakis (N, N-diphenylamino) -9,9' -spirobifluorene), DNTPD (N1, N1' - (biphenyl-4, 4' -diyl) bis (N1-phenyl-N4, N4-xylenyl-1, 4-diamine), NPB (N, N ' -bis- (1-naphthyl) -N, N ' -diphenyl- (1, 1' -biphenyl) -4,4' -diamine), NPNPB (N, N ' -diphenyl-N, N ' -bis- [4- (N, N-diphenylamino) phenyl]Benzidine), meO-TPD (N, N '-tetrakis (4-methoxyphenyl) benzidine), HAT-CN (1, 4,5,8,9, 12-hexaazabenzophenanthrene hexacarbonitrile) and/or Tris-Pcz (9, 9' -diphenyl-6- (9-phenyl-9H-carbazol-3-yl) -9H,9'H-3,3' -bicarbazole). In addition, the HTL may include a p-doped layer that may be composed of an inorganic dopant or an organic dopant in an organic hole transport matrix. Transition metal oxides such as vanadium oxide, molybdenum oxide, or tungsten oxide may be used as the inorganic dopant. Tetrafluorotetracyanoquinodimethane (F) 4 -TCNQ), copper pentafluorobenzoate (Cu (I) pFBz) or transition metal complexes may be used as organic dopants.
EBL may include, for example, mCP (1, 3-bis (carbazol-9-yl) benzene), TCTA (Tris (4-carbazol-9-ylphenyl) amine), 2-TNATA (4, 4',4 "-Tris [ 2-naphthyl (phenyl) amino ] triphenylamine), mCBP (3, 3-bis (9H-carbazol-9-yl) biphenyl), tris-Pcz (9-phenyl-3, 6-bis (9-phenyl-9H-carbazol-3-yl) -9H-carbazole), czSi (9- (4-tert-butylphenyl) -3, 6-bis (triphenylsilyl) -9H-carbazole) and/or DCB (N, N' -dicarbazolyl-1, 4-dimethylbenzene).
Adjacent to the Hole Transport Layer (HTL) or, if present, the Electron Blocking Layer (EBL), an emitting layer (EML) is typically positioned. The light emitting layer (EML) includes at least one organic molecule (i.e., an emitter material). Typically, the EML additionally comprises one or more host materials (also referred to as matrix materials). Illustratively, the host material may be selected from CBP (4, 4' -bis (N-carbazolyl) biphenyl), mCP (1, 3-bis (carbazol-9-yl) benzene), mCBP (3, 3-bis (9H-carbazol-9-yl) biphenyl), sif87 (dibenzo [ b, d ] thiophen-2-yltriphenylsilane), czSi (9- (4-tert-butylphenyl) -3, 6-bis (triphenylsilyl) -9H-carbazole), sif88 (dibenzo [ b, d ] thiophen-2-yldiphenylsilane), DPEPO (bis [2- (diphenylphosphino) phenyl ] ether oxide), 9- [3- (dibenzofuran-2-yl) phenyl ] -9H-carbazole, 9- [3- (dibenzothiophen-2-yl) phenyl ] -9H-carbazole, 9- [3, 5-bis (2-dibenzofuran-yl) phenyl ] -9H-carbazole, 9- [3, 5-bis (2-dibenzothiophenyl) phenyl ] -9H-carbazole, T (2, 6-T-3, 5-triazine) 2-T (3, 3-tri-phenyl) biphenyl, T3T (2, 4, 6-tris (terphenyl-3-yl) -1,3, 5-triazine) and/or TST (2, 4, 6-tris (9, 9' -spirobifluorene-2-yl) -1,3, 5-triazine). As known to those skilled in the art, the host material should typically be selected to exhibit a first (i.e., lowest) excited triplet state (T1) energy level and a first (i.e., lowest) excited singlet state (S1) energy level that are energetically higher than the first (i.e., lowest) excited triplet state (T1) energy level and the first (i.e., lowest) excited singlet state (S1) energy level of at least one organic molecule embedded in the respective host material.
As previously mentioned, it is preferred that at least one EML of an optoelectronic device in the context of the invention comprises at least one organic molecule according to the invention. Preferred compositions of EML of optoelectronic devices comprising at least one organic molecule according to the invention are described in more detail in the later sections herein (see below).
Adjacent to the light emitting layer (EML), an Electron Transport Layer (ETL) may be positioned. Here, any electron transport material may be used. For example, compounds having electron-deficient groups such as benzimidazole, pyridine, triazole, triazine, oxadiazole (e.g., 1,3, 4-oxadiazole), phosphine oxide, and sulfone may be used. The electron transport material may also be, for example, 1,3, 5-tris (1-phenyl-1H-benzo [ d ]]Imidazol-2-yl) benzene (TPBi).

Alternatively, the ETL may be doped with a material such as Liq ((8-hydroxyquinoline) lithium). An Electron Transport Layer (ETL) may also block holes or a Hole Blocking Layer (HBL) is typically introduced between the EML and the ETL.

For example, the cathode layer C may include or consist of a metal (e.g., al, au, ag, pt, cu, zn, ni, fe, pb, li, ca, ba, mg, in, W or Pd) or a metal alloy. For practical reasons the cathode layer may consist of a (substantially) opaque metal such as Mg, ca or Al.

This color refers to the emission maximum of the main emission peak relative to the luminescent molecule (in other words: emitter molecule).

According to the invention, an optoelectronic device comprising at least one organic molecule according to the invention may be used, for example, in a display, as a light source in lighting applications, and as a light source in medical and/or cosmetic applications (e.g. phototherapy).
Combinations of organic molecules according to the invention with other materials
Any layer, in particular the light emitting layer (EML), within an optoelectronic device, here preferably an OLED, may consist of a single material or a combination of different materials, which form part of the common general knowledge of a person skilled in the art.
For example, it is understood by those skilled in the art that the EML may be composed of a single material capable of emitting light when a voltage (and current) is applied to the device. However, it is also understood by those skilled in the art that the combination of different materials (in particular, one or more host materials (in other words: host materials; when included in an optoelectronic device comprising at least one organic molecule according to the invention, referred to herein as host material H) in the EML of the optoelectronic device (here preferably an OLED) B ) And one or more dopant materials, wherein at least one is emissive (i.e., an emitter material) upon application of voltage and current to the device) may be beneficial.
In a preferred embodiment of the use of the organic molecules according to the invention in an optoelectronic device, the optoelectronic device comprises at least one organic molecule according to the invention in the EML or in a layer directly adjacent to the EML or in more than one of these layers.
In a preferred embodiment of the use of the organic molecules according to the invention in an optoelectronic device, the optoelectronic device is an OLED and at least one organic molecule according to the invention is comprised in the EML or in a layer directly adjacent to the EML or in more than one of these layers.
In an even more preferred embodiment of the use of the organic molecule according to the invention in an optoelectronic device, the optoelectronic device is an OLED and at least one organic molecule according to the invention is comprised in an EML.
In one embodiment involving an optoelectronic device (preferably an OLED) comprising at least one organic molecule according to the invention, at least one (preferably each) organic molecule according to the invention is used as an emitter material in the light emitting layer EML, that is to say it emits light when a voltage (and current) is applied to the device.
As known to those skilled in the art, light emission from an emitter material (i.e., emissive dopant) in, for example, an Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) may include fluorescence from an excited singlet state (typically the lowest excited singlet state S1) and phosphorescence from an excited triplet state (typically the lowest excited triplet state T1).
The fluorescent emitter F is capable of emitting light at room temperature (i.e., (approximately) 20 ℃) upon excitation of electrons (e.g., in an optoelectronic device), wherein the emitted excited state is a singlet state. Fluorescent emitters typically exhibit instant (i.e., direct) fluorescence on a nanosecond time scale when initial electron excitation (e.g., by electron-hole recombination) provides an excited singlet state of the emitter.
In the context of the invention, a delayed fluorescent material is a material capable of reaching an excited triplet state (typically from the lowest excited triplet state T1) from an excited triplet state (typically from the lowest excited triplet state S1) by means of reverse intersystem crossing (RISC; in other words: upward intersystem crossing or reverse intersystem crossing) and also capable of emitting light upon returning from the excited triplet state thus reached (typically S1) to its electronic ground state. From the excited triplet state (typically T1) to after RISCFluorescence emission observed by emission excited singlet states (typically S1) occurs on a time scale (typically in the range of microseconds) that is slower than the time scale (typically in the range of nanoseconds) at which direct (i.e., instant) fluorescence occurs, and is therefore referred to as Delayed Fluorescence (DF). When RISC from an excited triplet state (typically from T1) to an excited singlet state (typically to S1) occurs by thermal activation, and if the excited singlet state thus filled emits light (delayed fluorescence emission), this process is called Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence (TADF). Thus, as described above, a TADF material is a material capable of emitting Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence (TADF). It is known to those skilled in the art that when the lowest excited singlet energy level E (S1 E ) And the lowest excited triplet level E (T1) E ) Energy difference ΔE between ST When reduced, a population of the lowest excited triplet states can be generated from the lowest excited triplet states with high efficiency by means of RISC. Thus, TADF materials will typically have a small Δe ST Values (see below) which form part of the common general knowledge of a person skilled in the art. As known to those skilled in the art, TADF materials may not be just materials that are themselves capable of RISC from an excited triplet state to an excited singlet state and subsequently emit TADF as described above. It is known to the person skilled in the art that the TADF material may in fact also be formed from two materials (preferably from two host materials H B More preferably from p host material H P And n host material H N ) The exciplex formed (see below).
The occurrence of (thermally activated) delayed fluorescence may be analyzed, for example, based on decay curves obtained from time-resolved (i.e., transient) Photoluminescence (PL) measurements. For this purpose, a spin-coated film of the corresponding emitter (i.e., a hypothetical TADF material) in poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) with 1 to 10 wt% (specifically, 10 wt%) of the corresponding emitter can be used as a sample. Analysis can be performed, for example, using an FS5 fluorescence spectrometer from an Edinburgh instrument (Edinburgh instruments). The sample PMMA film can be placed in a cuvette and kept under a nitrogen atmosphere during measurement. Data acquisition may be performed using well-known time-dependent single photon counting (TCSPC, see below) techniques. In order to collect full decay kinetics over time and signal intensity of several orders of magnitude, measurements in four time windows (200 ns, 1 μs and 20 μs and longer measurements spanning >80 μs) can be made and combined (see below).
The TADF material preferably satisfies the following two conditions with respect to the above-described full decay kinetics:
(i) Decay kinetics exhibit two time regions, one in the nanosecond (ns) range and the other in the microsecond (μs) range; and is also provided with
(ii) The shape of the emission spectrum in the two time zones is consistent;
wherein part of the light emitted in the first attenuation zone is regarded as instant fluorescence and part of the light emitted in the second attenuation zone is regarded as delayed fluorescence.
The ratio of delayed fluorescence to instant fluorescence may be expressed in the form of a so-called n value, which can be calculated by integration of the corresponding photoluminescence decay over time according to the following equation:
in the context of the present invention, TADF materials preferably exhibit n values (ratio of delayed fluorescence to instant fluorescence) of greater than 0.05 (n > 0.05), more preferably greater than 0.1 (n > 0.1), even more preferably greater than 0.15 (n > 0.15), particularly preferably greater than 0.2 (n > 0.20), or even greater than 0.25 (n > 0.25).
In a preferred embodiment, the organic molecule according to the invention exhibits an n-value (ratio of delayed fluorescence to instant fluorescence) of more than 0.05 (n > 0.05).
In the context of the present invention, TADF Material E B Characterized by exhibiting a delta E of less than 0.4eV (preferably less than 0.3eV, more preferably less than 0.2eV, even more preferably less than 0.1eV, or even less than 0.05 eV) ST Value, deltaE ST The value corresponds to the lowest excited singlet energy level E (S1 E ) And the lowest excited triplet level E (T1) E ) Energy difference between them. Determination of TADF MaterialMaterial E B Delta E of (2) ST The method of values is given in the subsections later herein.
One approach for designing TADF materials is generally to covalently attach one or more (electron) donor moieties with HOMO distributed thereon and one or more (electron) acceptor moieties with LUMO distributed thereon to the same bridge, referred to herein as a linking group. TADF Material E B Two or three linking groups may be included, for example, that are bound to the same acceptor moiety, and additional donor and acceptor moieties may be bound to each of the two or three linking groups.
One or more donor moieties and one or more acceptor moieties may also be directly bound to each other (in the absence of a linking group).
Typical donor moieties are diphenylamines, indoles, carbazoles, acridines, phenoxazines and derivatives of related structures. In particular, an alicyclic, aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system may be fused to the donor motif described above to give, for example, indolocarbazoles.
Benzene derivatives, biphenyl derivatives and to some extent also terphenyl derivatives are common linking groups.

Such an emitter molecule F may be any emitter molecule known in the art. Preferably, such emitter molecules F are molecules having a structure different from that of the organic molecule E according to the invention. The emitter molecule F may alternatively be a TADF emitter. Alternatively, the emitter molecules F may alternatively be fluorescent and/or phosphorescent emitter molecules capable of shifting the emission spectrum and/or the absorption spectrum of the light emitting layer EML. Illustratively, by emitting light that is typically red shifted compared to light emitted by the organic molecules, triplet and/or singlet excitons may be transferred from the organic molecule E according to the invention to the emitter molecule F before relaxation to the ground state S0. Alternatively, the emitter molecule F may also cause a two-photon effect (i.e., absorption of half the energy of the absorption maximum by two photons).
Alternatively, the optoelectronic device (e.g., OLED) may be, for example, a substantially white optoelectronic device. For example, such a white optoelectronic device may comprise at least one (deep) blue emitter molecule and one or more green and/or red light emitting emitter molecules. Then, energy transfer (energy transmittance) may also optionally be present between two or more molecules as described above.
As used herein, if not more specifically defined in a specific context, the designation of the color of emitted and/or absorbed light is as follows:
purple: wavelength range >380nm to 420 nm;
deep blue: wavelength range >420nm to 480 nm;
sky blue: wavelength range >480nm to 500 nm;
green: a wavelength range of >500nm to 560 nm;

Vapor deposition processes include, for example, thermal (co) evaporation, chemical vapor deposition, and physical vapor deposition. For active matrix OLED displays, the AMOLED backplane serves as a substrate. The individual layers may be treated from solution or dispersion with a suitable solvent. Solution deposition processes include, for example, spin coating, dip coating, and jet printing. The liquid treatment may optionally be carried out in an inert atmosphere (e.g., in a nitrogen atmosphere), and the solvent may be removed completely or partially by means known in the art.

Fabrication and characterization of optoelectronic devices
Optoelectronic devices (such as OLED devices) comprising organic molecules according to the invention can be manufactured via vacuum deposition methods. If the layer contains more than one compound, the weight percentage of one or more compounds is given in%. The total weight percentage value is 100% and therefore if no value is given, the fraction of this compound is equal to the difference between the given value and 100%.
